In Week 5 there were plenty of noteworthy performers around the SEC. Five conference games were on the schedule, along with a pair of nonconference games that were blowouts. South Carolina Gamecocks took care of South Carolina State, while the Florida Gators blasted Eastern Washington.
In SEC play, the Alabama Crimson Tide and Mississippi State Bulldogs ran away from the competition in their games. Both teams won by three or more scores. Meanwhile, the Georgia Bulldogs and LSU Tigers needed late comebacks to earn the victory. Ole Miss needed a little luck and a fumble to keep their perfect record intact.
With Week 5’s contests firmly in the books, the SEC editorial team at the College Wire voted on their top performers.
